, writes on
i idyl with a moral in relating his
j experience in getting a drink of
j water, says the Youth’s Compan-
: ion. He reined in beside a \\ay-
i side fountain at which a young
| girl was filling her pitcher,
j The damsel was very fair lolook
| upon, says Mr. Abbott, and I was
j very thirsty. So I said: “Give
j me, 1 pray the, a little water of
thy pitcher to drink.”
And she replied : “Drink thou,
and 1 will also withdraw my pitch
er, that my mule may drink like
wise.”
And I, carried away by the
charm of the scene, asked, not l’or
information, but for the sake of
hearing the music of her voice:
“Whose daughter art thou?”
And I went away crestfallen,
pondering oyer the difference be
tween Mesopotamia in the days of
Abraham and Macedonia in my
own.
As I entered the village of Pio-
visto a second damsel came fourth
with her pitcher on her shoulder.
She was not fair to look upon. 1
made bold to ask to direct me to
the house of a man to whom i was
recommended. And she made j
haste and let down her pitcher
from her shoulder, and showed me
the way. And I bowed my head
and offered her a silver com,
which she declined. Thereupon 1
offered Jhcr a water lily from my
belt, which she accepted with a j
modest blush; and forthwith she
ceased to look plain.
Verily, it is not always the fair
est vessel that contains the sweet
est wine.

Of tho typhoid epidemics traced
to milk-one of the most typical
was that at Springfield, Mass.,
where in July and August of 1S92
150 cases occurred concentrated in
one of the most beautiful subur
ban districts of that city. The
investigation by Professor V . T.
Sedgwick showed that the pesti
lence was coincident with the
route of a certain milkman. It
was next found that a portion of
bis product came from a farm
where several cases of typhoid
fever had occurred during the pre
ceding summer. Shortly before
the outbreak of the epidemic the
discharges from the patients wero
j spread upon a tobacco field. Ma-
1 nitre from this field carried on the
I boots of the farmhands was ob- j
